Question Details

Statements: C < G < L = Q > U ≤ Y ≥ E

Conclusions:
I. C < Q
II. Y > L

In this question, the relationship between different element is shown in the statements. The statements are followed by two conclusions. Give answer:

Options

A

If only conclusion I is true

B

If only conclusion II is true

C

If either conclusion I or II is true

D

If neither conclusion I nor II is true

E

If both conclusions I and II are true

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

If only conclusion I is true

Solution :

To determine which of the conclusions follow from the given statement, let us analyze the relationships step-by-step.

The given statement is:
C<G<L=Q>UYE

Analyzing Conclusion I: C<Q
Let us find the path from C to Q in the statement:
C<G<L=Q
Since C<G and G<L, we have C<L.
Since L=Q, we can substitute Q for L, which gives:
C<Q.
Therefore, conclusion I is definitely true.

Analyzing Conclusion II: Y>L
Let us find the path between L and Y in the statement:
L=Q>UY
Looking at the inequality symbols between Q (or L) and Y, we have a greater than symbol (>) and a less than or equal to symbol ().
Because the inequality signs face opposite directions, the relationship between L and Y cannot be established (no definite comparison is possible).
Therefore, conclusion II is not true.

Since only conclusion I is true, the correct option is "If only conclusion I is true".
